The United Kingdom showcased its vast experience and leadership in green building and design through a UK Trade & Investment-led delegation at the annual Greenbuild Conference and Expo in Philadelphia last week. The delegate companies represented the UK’s diverse set of capabilities and services in sustainable building practices ranging from innovative products and building materials to energy efficiency and overall consumption and waste reduction services.
“The UK has established ambitious and innovative carbon reduction policies that are fostering the development of low carbon solutions to create sustainably built environments,” said Michael Rosenfeld, UK Trade & Investment, Vice Consul – US Clean Technology Sector Lead. “The UK’s expertise in green building and energy efficiency is recognized around the world as a valuable resource to draw upon and collaborate with.”
This experience in the UK market has propelled British companies to expand their offerings and services to other regions like North America. Armourcoat, a UK manufacturer of polished plaster and high performance surface finishes, has found a receptive market in the US over the past decade with clients including Choice Hotels International. In 2009 the company established a formal office in Las Vegas, Nevada to serve as a base for its US operations.
“Armourcoat is excited to offer our global perspective and cutting edge technology with a focus on sustainable architecture and design to the US market,” said Daniel Nevitt, Marketing Director at Armourcoat. “With established operations in Las Vegas, we relish the opportunity to connect with other leaders in this space to further grow our North America presence.”
In addition to Armourcoat, the UK delegation included IOBAC, BMPR Offsite Consultancy Services, Conport Structures, Ergohome, MagmaTech, Origin Frames, Riva Global, and Unic International.
